- Hip Hop
- - Crunk
- - Dirty South
- - Gangsta Rap (need a way to distinguish purely lyrical genres vs purely production genres. Perhaps an attribute/checkbox. This would also extend outside of Hip Hop. Either way not hardcore)
- - Horrorcore
- - Hardcore HH (redefining this as purely production-based)
- -- Hardcore Trap
- -- Hardcore Boom Bap
- -- Britcore
- -- Mid-School HH
- -- Trap Metal
- -- Chicago Drill?
- - Boom Bap
- -- Hardcore Boom Bap (separation for the post-90s Boom Bap stuff that isn't hardcore)
- - Cloud Rap
- -- Trillwave
- - Buck
- -- Memphis Rap
- --- Dungeon Rap
- - Trap
- -- Trapsoul / Melodic Trap
- -- Phonk
- -- Chicago Drill
- -- Bop
- -- Dark Trap (BMB-style, not Wave)
- -- Trap Metal
- -- Tread
- -- Plugg
- --- PluggnB
- -- Surge
- -- Minimalist Trap (DaBaby/Megan-esque stuff that's just a 4/4 snare beat, 2-3 note piano line, and simple bass. Definitely needs a better name)
- -- Hardcore Trap (not just all Trap that's hardcore, it's for a very specific production style that you hear Waka and Kevin Gates on all the time. Characterised by heavy, rolling snares, chimes, and blasting MIDI horn sounds. Could use a better name but sources are needed)
- -- Crushed Trap (there are examples that are not hexD or Surge)
- - Psych Rap (good luck ever passing this. specifically for the Travis Scott/Kid Cudi/Kids See Ghosts approach to psych rap that's cloud rap and neo-psych-adjacent)
- - Punk Rap (good luck ever passing this or defining it outside of Carti and Uzi)
- - Art Rap / Backpacker Rap (tons of sources, tons of history, very ideosyncratic sound. No idea how this hasn't been submitted yet)
- - Hypnagogic Rap (decent sources for the slums sound + Standing on the Corner, but not much for Lo-NY and almost none for Hypnagogic Rap. Very clear sound but the edge cases. Viper would fall under this clearly but a lot would not be happy about another retroactive Viper tag)
- Contemporary R&B
- - Trapsoul / Melodic Trap
- Electronic
- - hexD
- - Nightcore
- - Trillwave (the more Chillwave-adjacent Cloud Rap that's very electronic. Clams and early Carti are the poster for this)
- - Wave (might need to remove the Dark Trap aka if duplicates aren't allowed)
- Sound Manipulation ([meta]? This probably runs into Technique territory which should be a separate set of objects)
- - Chopped & Screwed (isnt just anything slowed down)
- - Florida Fast Music (isnt just anything sped up)
- - Nightcore (isnt just anything sped up)
- - hexD
- Trap [meta]
- - Trap [EDM]
- - Vaportrap
- - Trap
- - Memphis Rap
- -- Dungeon Rap
- - UK Drill?
- * (a lot of Crunk and Dirty South belongs under here but not all, and the stuff that does is not really a unique subgenre. This is part of why the genre system needs to be reworked so that there can be primary and secondary parents + metas and movements are shown in a separate set of voting boxes)
- Drill [meta]
- - Chicago Drill
- -- Ghana Drill (scene)
- - UK Drill
- Hypnagogia [movement]
- - Hypnagogic Pop
- - Hypnagogic Drone (Ferraro/KWJAZ, maybe Hypnagogic Ambient instead? There's a lot of overlap between them, not sure which is more common or well-defined)
- - Hypnagogic Rap
- Psychedelia [movement]
- - Hypnagogic Pop
- - Neo-Psych
- -- Hypnagogic Drone?
